The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

A methodical side-scrolling action game where you recruit allies and build a deck to fend off monster invasions.

What players say

Players describe Legacy of Defense as a fun but shallow idler roguelike, praising its cheap price and addictive build-upgrading loop, but criticize combat as slow and skill synergy as lacking. Opinions split on whether the content justifies the cost, with most agreeing it gets repetitive within 10 to 12 hours.
